Ben is a handsome 15 month old neutered male Golden Retriever weighing 70 lbs. He is looking for a person or couple that can give him lots of exercise, attention and direction as that is what a young boy like him thrives on and needs! He will need a dog savvy owner with the time to work with him and be willing to not crate him as he was left in a crate long hours a day, and after time, when his owners would put him in the crate, he started to get grumpy, so needless to say, Ben does not like crates! He is a young active dog who needs plenty of fun daily energy outlets, as a tired pup is a good pup!
We have sent Ben to a trainer as he can get over excited and mouthy. The trainer will work with his new owner on how to control Ben's overly excitable behavior. Ben will need to go to an active home with a fully secure fenced back yard, no children, and probably no other dogs. He knows some basic commands and enjoys the GRRAND pool.
Ben does well at the kennel, and the kennel volunteers love him; he craves attention and wants to play and be petted constantly.
Ben may have seasonal allergies and may be allergic to chicken, so he is eating Purina Pro Plan Sensitive Skin dog food just in case, but it was never confirmed. We are also told he has a significant fear of vacuums and brooms.
If you have the time, energy and patience to work with this beautiful young boy, please apply to foster or adopt Ben at GRRAND.org
